Come take a walk with me into the morning light Thought streets of wind-blown paper – this everyday delight Oh now open your eyes – see the wonder of it all We’ll kill this hour together – together we can fall Down the path of sadness down the path of history Time is on your side and everything you see All your expectations the laughter in your eyes All these endless hours will come as no surprise Back in the real world You may be guilty of hunger, you may be guilty of pride So don’t you tell anybody the secrets that you hide So pack up all your bags – this fairy tale is broken It’s written on your face – the real world has spoken Come take a walk with me into the morning light Through streets of wind blown paper – this everyday delight Things will fall together, so clean and civilized Just let me take you down, cut you down to size Down the path of sadness down the path of history It’s drifting with the tide and everything you see It’s back in the real world Back in the real world baby Back in the real world So good to be here So good to be here Living in a life of history
